  • State-of-the-Art Combination Therapies and Nanomedicines for Triple Negative Breast Cancer

    Creator:
    Fabbi, Meagan C.
    Abstract:
    Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a particularly aggressive molecular subtype of malignant cells that tends to proliferate quickly and is commonly resistant to traditional chemotherapy leading to relapses in prognosis more frequently than other forms of breast cancer (BCa) [1][2][3]. Current treatment options include surgical resection of cancerous tissue and...

  • Measuring Bubble Pressure in Glacier Ice

    Creator:
    Clonch, Cameron E.
    Abstract:
    Recent observations of tidewater glaciers find that the currently accepted model for predicting ice melt vastly underestimates observed melt rates. The release of pressurized air bubbles into the ocean from pores in the ice is one process that can amplify glacier melt. To incorporate this process into models, we need...

  • Prototyping of Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting Circuitry for IoT Devices

    Creator:
    Webb, Derek
    Abstract:
    Due to the advancement of incredibly low power microcontrollers and small form factor integrated circuits, energy harvesting can be considered as an alternative, low power source for remote ocean sensing and measurements. To demonstrate the effectiveness of harvesting thermoelectric energy contained in the temperature differential between ocean surface water and...

  • Design and Implementation of a Modular Ocean Drifter Kit

    Creator:
    Green, Austin
    Abstract:
    Ocean Drifters are a low-cost and easy-to-use platform that are commonly used for studying ocean currents. With added interest in studying the ocean, emphasis has been taken to make it more accessible. A pilot course focused on introducing the topic of ocean sensing was announced. The HC 407 course will...

    Creator:
    Smith, Madelyn
    Abstract:
    This full research paper explores two factors of increasing importance for first-year university engineering curricula: sustainability and diversity. Over the past fifteen years, many universities in the United States have adjusted their engineering programs in response to these two values expressed by industry, professional organizations, and the Accreditation Board for...

  • The Effect of the Lateral Collateral Ligament on Coronoid Process Loading in Dogs : An Ex Vivo Study

    Creator:
    Yang, Linda M.
    Abstract:
    Large canine breeds are commonly diagnosed with a type of elbow disease called fragmented medial coronoid process (FMCP). FMCP occurs when the cartilage and bone of the coronoid process, located on the ulna, is fractured. Etiologies include mechanical overload of the ulna and incongruences of the radius and ulna with...

  • Mining Public Microbiome Datasets to Identify Specific Microbial Taxa Associated with Anxiety-Related Disorders

    Creator:
    Martin, Austin N.
    Abstract:
    Over the last ten years, clinical, pre-clinical and animal studies have shown associations between the microbiota and neurological functions. Recent work by the scientific community on the gut-microbiome-brain axis have revealed that gut dysbiosis and specific microbial taxa are associated with a myriad of neurological conditions, such as autism spectrum...

    Creator:
    Walters, Amy L.
    Abstract:
    Objective- To determine the average flexion and standing extension measurements for each limb articulation of alpacas and llamas and determine if there was any significant difference between the species’ measurements. Animals- Alpacas (n=6) and llamas (n=6) of the Oregon State University teaching herd. Methods- Each articulation was measured four times...
